Feed‐through insecticides for the control of the sand fly Phlebotomus argentipes
Three rodent feed‐through studies were conducted to evaluate the efficacy of insecticides to control Phlebotomus argentipes (Diptera: Psychodidae). The initial test evaluated diflubenzuron, eprinomectin, fipronil and ivermectin as feed‐through treatments in Rattus rattus (Rodentia: Muridae). In the...
